Thank you, that was my read hearing lots of clips of it, but good to confirm that to some extent. I think I am pretty set on finding a Combustion with the Neve in it at this point :) edit: found a deal I couldn't pass up on the JT, so I'll be joining the DIngwall club officially soon I think...

Thanks, yeah good shout about used. I really like active preamps so I feel like I would use it more often than not, but having never played a Dingwall in person I can't make that statement with any confidence. I really appreciate your experience, thanks for sharing it. I found a JT for a great...

Thank you, this is exactly how I feel from listening to dozens of videos and recordings. The DG just seems to have this sound I feel like I'd constantly be trying to dial out or fight against, that's a great way to phrase it. Do you have any thoughts on the EMG preamp Dingwall ships with these...

I'm not sure if this is the proper place, but figured a bunch of DIngwall owners in one spot is as good as any. Apologies for the length of this post. I really want a 5 string Dingwall Combustion, but I am having trouble figuring out which one I am after, and there really aren't any local...

Thank you, maybe I should post something more specific in another part of this forum to attract folks who might be able to help on the EQ side? I don't want to spam too much here 😅

That's a great solution, and one I actually have to employ already in my modeler, but I think I haven't been as successful here as I'd like. I mean this in a non-flippant way, but what suggestions would you have on sliders to tweak to target this sound better? Maybe I should repost this as an EQ...

Thanks for the heads up, and my feelings on the Rumble exactly. They have tons of bottom end, but not the clarity and hi-fi sound on the top end that I've been chasing... at least in my hands :) ----- Thanks folks for all the recs, adding them to my list to audition if I can! I think my...

Thank you, this all makes sense and it's how I would evaluate a guitar amp, I don't really have much opportunity to try all the things I'd like to in person unfortunately. Budget wise, I mentioned I'm willing to invest in something that can get me closer to the tones mentioned but lets say...

Thanks! Yeah I have a Warwick which gets me close with my modeler, but FRFR doesn't sound the same as a bass cab does and it's lacking that punch/oomph/highs I am after. I also don't really want to copy that setup explicitly or anything, it was just a handy reference for the kind of tone I am...

Hey TB! I've been using a modeler as a bass amp for a quite a while since I mostly play drums these days and modeling makes it super easy to record bass guitar. I miss having something that can move air and produce bass that I can feel though. I sold all the stuff I used to gig with years ago...

Yes, though I've had nothing but terrible experiences with Guitar Center if you were going to suggest them 😅 There is an interesting amber SSI one in their used inventory but it looks very sad indeed: filthy, replaced parts(?), and the back control panel is held on by clear tape. I am afraid I...

Thanks, that's helpful. What did you find different about the neck itself? The shape/geometry? There's really no way to try an LX other than just buying one unfortunately, they just don't seem to exist in my area and there are no dealers.

I've wanted to play a Streamer Stage I for a long time, the P/J 4 string edition specifically. I've always loved and sought the recorded tone of this instrument. They are difficult to come by, I've never seen one pop up locally in the last 20 years. I haven't been watching ultra closely, but...

Another update from the EBMM CS team via my email comms with them, for folks who didn't see the colours or options they wanted... "We do plan to make more colors and options available in the future! As to what those will be, we have no current plans. But we will pass your request on to our...
